[BUG] Weird hybrid installation #13

Open polzar-sketch opened 2 years ago

polzar-sketch commented 2 years ago

The computer that Im using has a broken internal ssd so I tried to revive the computer by trying out android 86 distro's with an external ssd. I already installed primeos on it and I decided that I did not like it so I reformatted the external ssd and tried with blissos 86. When I booted from the external ssd I found all of my primeos apps on a different ui even though I erased the drive. There were left over system apps frome Primeos like termux and gamecenter. I think it's possible because II was a quick erase so the data was not technically gone and somehow the installer for bliss restored that data. I had to install again but with a fuller erase and that time it worked.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Install primeos (maybe other android distros would produce the same bug I am not sure)
  2. Quick reformat your drive (A slow but fuller erase might not work)
  3. Install Bliss 86

Expected behavior Bliss os overwriting the data and not installing on top of that or prompting me that it was gonna restore data.

Additional information I think this bug could be turned into a feature if a prompt was added. This was a Bliss os 14 Install.

this is strange, how can it get the data when the drive is formatted ?

UknowEtheG commented 4 months ago

I believe when going through the installation process of BlissOS, an option to format data is provided if an existing data.img is detected by the installer. If you do not select to format, then it will not touch the existing data.img

Please verify that during installation you chose "yes" when presented with the option to format.

Could also be due to an improper cleanup of previous Androidx86 based installs.
